Ah, it’s another flame duplicate. My favourite power usage.

Actually, this one’s not too bad. Unlike previous uses, which have seen near-sentient duplicates battle villains, or follow them wherever they go, this one is designed to be a brief distraction and does nothing other than stand around. Of course, there’s the matter of what fuel is being used to keep the fire burning, but answers to such questions are in very short supply.
